d.mon only works for root

[Bill Voigt]

I've been doing alot of system backups/restorations & other things 
relating to the reinstallation of a Linux/grass configuration on a 2 Gb 
scsi disk.  I must say that I am not the most unix literate of users, and 
I think I may have inadvertently changed permissions somewhere along the 
way to arrive at the following symptoms:
	I log in as a regular user, start X, open a shell, start grass4.1.
When I run d.mon start=x0, I get a strange message
	Can't start x0
	Graph_Set: 0.0 
	.
	.
	.
When I do the same procedure as root, I get a graphics monitor fine.  I 
have tried to reset ownership & permissions for the entire grass 
directories, but to no avail.  Right now, I'm reloading my system from 
the last tape backup after finally admitting defeat.  However, I'd still 
like to figure out the problem.  Any ideas?
